Hello! Thank you so much for your help! i have downloaded some photos to see if they would display on my main page but all it says is 'image'. You have to click on the link to see the photo but from my understanding of Imbalance2 theme photos should be displayed on the main page. Any ideas of what im doing wrong or is my interpretation of Imbalance2 wrong? Thanks again!

Imbalance 2 offers two layout options, fluid and fixed.Fluid means the width changes according to screen resolution (or the width of browser) your visitors use.Fixed means the width does not change according to screen resolution (or the width of browser) your visitors use.

Column one is the blog title and tagline; you edit them in Settings > General.Columns two and three are for two menus; you create and load them in Appearance > Menus - instructions here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/menus/Column four is for widgets; you add them in Appearance > Widgets.
